Part 1: 

Faith Above Reason - Selected Excerpts from the Sources. #28 

   
 
1.Rav’s Introduction: Yes, so first of all we need to determine what reason means, that our outlook on the world, especially on others and especially on the friends that is called reason. If we want to rise above that to the Creator, then we have to change both the way we look at the world and at the friends to be in a different way, to see through them the higher degree, which is above it, above it when we unite all the forces, all the phenomena that we have before us, to the Creator. Then through the unity of the friends we try to determine that there is None Else Besides Him and we want to be adhered to Him, and to be above all of the ways we determine our state which we are able to do with our existing vision with our reason but rather to be above it so that the Creator is higher, and he determines everything that we have, which compels us to feel ourselves in wholeness, in connection, in a mutual relationship all connected to each other because this is the way we seem, in the eyes of the Creator, not in the eyes of our ego.  

  

Then each time we want to shift ourselves into such a state, that is what we need to try to do, to determine it; and from that we already start to feel in each and every moment how we can go deeper into that perception that exist in the force of bestowal, of connection, in the force of the Creator. If we are not yet able to do it to some extent then we ask the Creator that he will complete this picture by connecting us and directing us to Him, and in that we will enter the feeling, the sense of bestowal, and we will continue. This is why what is important for us is to constantly think about how, out of our connection we can turn to the Creator, to see, to feel, to determine what is reality that is called BoReh, come and see, Creator. So let us do it. Let us go over a few excerpts, do a few exercises. Later on we also move to the article, the Wisdom of Kabbalah and Philosophy, that also helps us to determine what differences there are between the rational, corporeal, matter-of-fact perception in the will to receive, and how we need to be above that in faith above reason.  

 
 In that way we will advance until we truly awaken by that the upper light, so that they will influence us according to how we are not capable of, but we do want that it will happen, by that we will awaken the upper light from afar. It shines on us, and it promotes us, and again and again in the thought of “each one shall help his friend” because here I need the support of the entire world Kli. So, that each one will want to be in that, according to his state, according to his degree, according to his root of the soul, so that he will advance towards that more and more, and in this way we will reach a state where, as the Creator writes about the end of correction “and they shall all know me from the least of them to the greatest of them and my house”, meaning the upper world, “my house will be called a house of prayer to all nations”.  

  

Excerpt 28 (5:40) 

 
2. R. (6:40) Here there’s a question, the fact that we feel a certain state of disconnection from the Creator, something that confuses us that doesn’t work out according to our emotion, according to our intellect, that I feel that this comes from me or from others, from the world, from the group, all of these things that disconnect me emotionally and intellectually from the goal, and the way that it existed within me to some extent. That thing, first of all, Kabbalists say that it all comes from the Creator, and it all comes to our benefit, so we will strengthen the connection between us and also with the Creator on a higher degree, a stronger one. A higher one means more in bestowal, which is less in all kinds of basic rational evidence, intellectual proof, egoistic ones, in which that I use this world and more, a little bit more than before I will hinge myself, my existence only on the connection between us, which is not yet felt, it is not felt. 

 
It was felt a little bit beforehand but now, when the state has changed, the Creator arranged it so for me that I do not feel it at all and I need to search where should it be, where did I lose it, that connection between me and the friends, or in general, was it there or not? So I somehow need to see importance in that, that if I will find my connection with the group, and this depends only on me because from the side of the group I need to believe as the Kabbalists tell me that the Creator is there, he exists inside of the friends, and he turns to me in such a way and he invites me to come closer to them, this is called that “my beloved is like a gazelle”, that he runs away from me, however, nevertheless he turns his face backward. By that he invites me to follow him. Then, if I do not forget about this and I start to search nevertheless for what kind of connection can there be from me to them, to the friends, and to the Creator who is inside of them, and by that I begin to run after them. They are always ahead of me, and they are all showing me in all different kinds of forms and manners, that they have something in them, and I am not yet with them. Of course that form is a form, well I cannot say if it is false or true, maybe it just seems to me. Because if I look at them, if I listen to them, I see that they actually do not feel any gap between us but rather they are all close together, they want to be close together with me, and I myself feel that I am far away from them, that there is a distance between us, and I cannot cross that distance.  

 
Here I begin to see, to understand that this distance, I can pass through it, I can skip it, only by leaping, which is called “faith above reason,” through the force of faith, the force of bestowal, the force of love that I do not have, so how will I advance, nevertheless? And here we already need to follow all kinds of recommendations of the Kabbalists, what Rabash writes about how much I should feel myself as zero relative to them, and how much I nevertheless do feel my importance because I am one of the ten, and by coming closer to them I do want to determine such connection between us in which we will discover the true connection that exist between us which is the Creator, He exists between us, this connection, the general force of bestowal that fills the whole reality. However we cannot discover Him through our own force, that is what it is about, that there is the true matter, which we are all connected, and we are at the end of correction. We do not distance at all from sanctity, God forbid, as Baal HaSulam says. However on the other hand, we have to reach it through our own efforts, through prayer, which is the most important, through prayer.  

 
So that we will see our prayer as a Kli, a vessel in the connection between us as the vessel, as the reflected light within the vessel and the Creator who becomes revealed inside of it. That is we have all the conditions before us, we just have to arrange them, we have to establish them, stabilize them, and in that way, we will truly reach a connection which is called “Israel, the light and the Creator is one.” Israel is any person in the world who yearns, Yashar El, straight to the Creator, and Orayta is the light, the Torah, is a method by which Kabbalists tell us how we can advance to adhesion through the upper light to adhesion with the upper force, and the Creator is that upper force that to begin with created everything, arranged everything, and manages everything. When we reach a state where these three elements, Israel, the Light, and the Creator, all three of them are together they connect, then we already attain the spiritual degree at least to some extent, and then more and then more each time. This is how we will advance. Therefore he writes that the matter of preparation of the blow that one receives from the Creator, when he takes from him the flavor of the work, that He seemingly disconnects my battery so I cannot move. How will I do it? It is by connecting to the source of energy, a different source of energy, a different source of importance which is a higher one.  

 
By this itself when he does so when He disconnects me from my ordinary source of advancement, by this the Creator heals me. He heals him because then person has no other way to serve the Creator, meaning to advance towards the purpose of life, but with faith above reason. This is considered that I connect myself instead of Malchut to Bina, and from there I take the energy, the importance, my energy, my importance. It follows that the blow that he received from the Creator that He disconnected him from the ordinary sources, from this itself he can be healed. Why? Because otherwise he will remain in separation, and he cannot remain in separation because from that he gets a very unpleasant feeling, and, even though it is an egoistic feeling, nevertheless, in each and every state, even a spiritual one, when we advance, we discover ourselves in the state that we were before as an egoistic state, and this is how we rise above it because otherwise he will remain in separation. By this we understand what our sages said, “that by the blows of the Creator he heals.” In other words this is the healing, that he gives him room to work with faith without any support, meaning besides bestowing I do not want anything.  

I want to see the world entirely in bestowal and that there is no force of reception there, and this is how I relate to the friends because this is my world, the group is my spiritual world, this is where I build it. So he works only in bestowal only with forces of bestowal towards each other. This is what we now need to do within our tens, to see only mutual acts of bestowal towards each other, intentions, desires, dispositions, expressions of that, as much as possible. Each shall help his friend. As much as I see that in others, I will be ashamed that I am not that way, and this will advance me. Also we should understand, he continues, Rabash continues, what our sages said, the Creator makes a decree and the righteous revokes it. This means that the Creator makes a decree meaning he takes away from him the pleasure of the work that he had before, that the person had before and there is no harsher decree than taking from someone the vitality, the pleasure, takes away the pleasure, than taking from someone the vitality in the work. The person seemingly feels that that is it, he has no strength to work, there is nothing for which to work, he cannot come closer and keep and hold himself and direct himself. So the Creator decrees, this way he makes that new state but the righteous revokes it.  

 
 That is if a person says that he wants to work without any support of vitality and pleasure, that I don’t want to use these vessels, because I feel in that this is some foundation that I can stand on that I received something and according to that I have a certain direction, some correct orientation in my life, but I don't want to go in this way, I want to have a different compass as much as I bestow without any foundation. That is that he wants to work without any reward of vitality and pleasure, then the decree is revoked in any case, what the Creator did which he took away from him the pleasures, the earlier guidelines, directions and the person seemingly is disoriented confused like a baby that was forgotten, he feels himself standing in the middle of the room and doesn't know what to do, he cries. This is always the state in between the degrees that we feel and here or there each one of us feels it, and we have to cancel that state. So if a person says that he wants to work without any support or vitality and pleasure that he had before, then the decree is revoked in any case, meaning it is not a decree. It follows that the Creator is positioning him in a new state.  

  

Go ahead now and take a step forward, just like we teach a little child, we place him and let him walk and he just stands there, and he cries, does not know what to do, he cannot move, so usually he just sits down on the floor but no. Here we need to understand that we have no choice, this is a state in which we have to take one step forward, so do it. Crying like a little child, learn from him. This is why it says that the righteous revokes it, that is if a person says that he wants to work without any support of vitality and pleasure then the decree is revoked in any case. Meaning that he decides it is great that now I have a state where I am just hanging in the air and I cannot do anything and now I need to find my way, my entrance to the Upper world. This is how I will rise to a higher degree, and this is the way to rise from Malchut to Bina each time more and more and more, without support, with whatever I had before where we instinctively like a little child we want to hold onto something so that we do not fall. No we do not fall. Follow the guidelines, follow the direction that you are now receiving from above. If you lose the flavors, if you lose the direction in this world, it is considered that the Creator is giving you an opportunity to take a step forward with spiritual forces with the forces of Bina. So do not step on the ground on Malchut, go up a little bit more in the clouds in the air.  

 
Moreover, now he rises to a higher degree for now he is in the state of pure faith, forces of bestowal meaning I do not see anything, I do not understand anything, and I do not want, I do not want to go back to what I had before, no. But rather I now want to receive new qualities, in wherever I am, as if you truly now want to step on a cloud and to walk on the clouds on forces of bestowal on forces of Bina. For he is now in the state of pure faith and is regarded as having no self-interest, but I have nothing. I want to go in such a way with a different quality, with a connection being above my ego, with a different attitude, not according to what I had before to the friends and to the Creator, and this is how I begin to feel around, but already in the new qualities of connection of bestowal, and I am already in some connection to the quality of Bina. That is it.  

We need to start to diagnose to discern our work in the cloud, and that cloud is only for the time being later on you will see the world from one end to the other, however with sight of bestowal. So more and more as we get used to walking in such a way, we put our baby again on both feet and let him walk again and for him walking on two feet without holding on to anything without something being done with it, he cannot, so we need to understand this is untrue. That we should believe that the Creator is placing, just like we placed the foot of the baby and then the other foot and another foot, and we show it how we need to walk and from that he gets examples. We will get such examples, how to walk above our intellect above our egoistic emotion and in that way we will advance. This is how we will advance.  

 
 Excerpt 29 (25:33) Twice 

  

3. R. (27:31) I deliberately connected these two writings in order for us to have work, that it is a bit more complete. Here it already speaks how we relate to different states, how to operate in each and every state so please read this one again.  

Reading Excerpt 29 Again
 

4. R. (28:09) This is first and foremost in each and every state. If I want to reset myself, I have to reach a state, certainly not in my feeling however I accept it as a given. That I am in a world that is whole, and I am also in a state of wholeness, except for my perception for the time being. 

 Continued Reading… 

5. R. (29:23) Because the left gives us the foundation and then the right, we need to raise it.  

Reader Continues… 
 

6. R. (30:36) Why is it that for the left I cannot give thanks? Because it distances me. But if I accept it as something that is good for my advancement then the left because the right and then I am walking on the middle line, on one line. Let us start to scrutinize these things a little bit. It is not simple, there are many things in it, we are just touching it, but we are still missing a lot of elements.
 

7. S. (31:25) We had a meeting of friends precisely on this point you mentioned on the left line and right line. We heard from the friends that everybody wants to work on the right line, but it is also necessary to be on the left line in order to correct ourselves. So there was a discussion between the friends that we are not even supposed to touch the left line and only work on the right. Then I became confused. Now that I am listening to the text, we just read my question is what does it mean that we must always look for the right line in the assembly of friends?

R. Look, all in all what the Kabbalists recommend is that we will see ourselves, that it is good to see ourselves always being on the right. and only for half an hour a day. Let us say that it is not defined specifically as 30 minutes, it can be 1 hour or 2 hours, but a well-defined time that you say that from here until an hour from now that I am only engaging in the left. Because in the left you nevertheless start to criticize yourself with your will to receive as much as you are up or down with the help of your forces of reception. This is work which can happen only on the condition that you are already on the right with all of your forces. Then you can add to it correctly the left, not just to be in the left, that it is always good and correct, no.
 

It is on the condition that you are capable of it. But if you are not yet certain that you are on the right and that you have the justification to seemingly discover all the states that you might on the left then it is not worthwhile for you, it is not good for you to enter on the left. It is not just about you that you can be in that even half an hour a day. Therefore we need to try, first of all inside the group to pass on to each other the right line. Awakening, warming up, support, confidence, positive examples through envy, lust, and honor, that we will awaken the friends so they can advance. Later on I will advance through them, I cannot advance alone. All of the advancement in the group is that I wake them up and as much as possible I push them forward and after they advance then I find there my connection in them, because I awakened them, I caused them to advance. Then I can chase after them and advance. This is why envy is something very important. It promotes as and it promotes us even more if this envy is what I caused, I did it. Let us say I brought to the group all kinds of different means by which they advanced, and I look at them and I regret that I brought them that. Why? Because now they advanced. Earlier I was worth something, now they are more than me, so I look at them and I regret it, that I caused them that. This envy is actually what promotes me. It is like you throw something from yourself forward and then you go and come closer to that, you bring yourself up to that place. it is impossible in any other way but only by making the group advance and then later on you can start to come close, to climb up to them and in that way to advance. In that we always feel ascents and descents and different opportunities and only in such a way that I use the group and the friends seem to me one time up, one time down, and each time I help them and later on I need to bring myself closer also.  

 
There are moments when I truly regret that I gave, that I helped, that I supported, but it is from above, the Creator has arranged it for me. But in between in such a way I advance. The force of bestowal is involved in that and the force of reception and how it all becomes incorporated. The force of reception in this way becomes corrected through the force of bestowal. So here we have envy, lust and honor, all kinds of such discernments that bring us out of our corporeal world and elevate us to the spiritual world because I use the corporeal discernments and envy, lust, and honor. What might be worse and more egoistic than that? But because I use it with the friends, that one time I give that to them and another time I come closer to them, by that I do rise from degree to degree. This is how each one of us does it. This is called, each one should help his friend.
 

S. If so, all the forces that I have I should use them in order to help my friends in everything? If I have a desire or even if I do not have a desire to do this, if I have flavor or I do not have flavor I need to do anything possible in order to help my friends?

R. Of course, it is written about it, I have nothing to answer here. It is written that if you can, do. But here we are talking about not even a situation where you want to help, but this is what we do. Listen again and you will see what I said.   

 
8. S. (39:51) What does it mean to pray for the left?

R. There is a prayer and there is gratitude, giving thanks. A prayer is a request for help. A prayer is a request for help, which is the request. The right is when we bless the Creator thanking Him, respecting Him, praising Him. The two of them, left and right, build in us a special relation, a special connection to the Creator into one complete whole, which is the middle line. 

  

9. S. (40:52) When we are in a fall what directs us? 

R. In all the states we are in there is not any basis between us besides the group itself. If we lose our confidence, it is all the Creator's doing only so we would strengthen the connection between us and begin to use the point of connection between us as with the Creator. He is there inside, in the internality of the connection between us, that is where He is. Therefore we have to try to become as connected as possible from within the connection, and if we cannot then we have to search for it, seek for it. From within that we should turn to the Creator.  

  

S. (42:12) It is very hard to cling to the group in a fall. How can I raise the prayer?  

R. So you have to annul, there is nothing else you can do here. Annul in every way you can and attach yourself to them and whatever they do, you do, just like a baby toward a grown-up. Why does it grow? Because it annuls before the grown-up. The grown-up does with it whatever it wants, and this is how we grow. This is why of course the greatest attention is given to the embryo, then to the baby, and the more the person grows there is less attention to him from the grown-ups. He can already take care of himself. This is how it is, and this is how it continues. He has the love of the parents on him and then the love of the grandparents and then that is it, two degrees. A third degree already begins to wane. The love is on the first degree and on the second degree. We will learn why it is like that in spiritual degrees, but on the third degree there is a relation, but it is not beyond grandchildren. Great grandchildren are already a lesser degree. It will be clear to us. 

 
10. S. (44:22) The recent lessons have been so intensive on high revolutions, but something is being revealed now that was never revealed before which is that you feel a lot of shame suddenly. A person discovers shame in these lessons not only from the Creator but also from the group. You are ashamed before them and also at the same time you feel happy that it is becoming revealed to you. Is this normal, is it how it should be, or should I change something? 

R. I understand that for you it is not normal, but it is normal and good. It is actually good; it is a good sign.  

  

11. S. (45:18) Do I understand correctly that I can promote the friends and help the ten only thanks to how much I myself come closer to them? Is that so? 

R. Yes, and besides these examples. Give them examples and participate with them in whatever activities they decide on. 

  

12. S. (45:53) In our ten it seems that are those who engage 23 hours a day on the left, criticism against the ten and 1 hour on the right. How do you suggest that we work with that? 

R. I suggest taking some article from Rabash and reading it together and trying to implement it so it would be clear to them that this is not done, then another article, and another article so it will be clear to them that they are not carrying out our method of correction. So what are they doing in the ten? Besides not keeping quiet they are even criticizing what we do, what we are trying to do, what Rabash writes? So they are against what he is writing. They are against what Baal HaSulam determined. So they have no place in Bnei Baruch. They might say we will try as hard as we can but, in the meantime, this is who we are, we cannot. Then I will be able to understand them, they are asking for help. But if they read what is written and do not want to do it then they have no place among us. We have to create some separate group from them, something next to us on our side so they do not interfere with us. Because they do not agree with what is written. So this is why we are willing to give them a chance to ripen in the meantime on the side, until they are ready. Afterwards they can join us, but not within our group if they do not agree to do what is written. 

S. If they agree to do as it says but they still keep going like that how can we help them? Simply read Rabash articles or…? 

R. Wait, they agree to do what is written?  

 

S. They want to.  

R. They want to, good. So they are trying but not succeeding? 

 
S. Yes, which is how I see it.  

R. But they want it.  

 
S. They do want to.  

R. How do you know that they want it? 

S. They say so, they say that they want to. 

R. But they are not actually succeeding?  

 

S. Well, there are all kinds of different states. 

R. If there are all kinds of states then you need to scrutinize it. There is no point asking me, nothing to ask about. I understood that they are against, that they do not want it. Although it is written they do not want to do it. Then they have no place with us, and you have to make a separate group out of them. Of course they will have correction but not at the same pace as ours. You need to give them a chance, a possibility. 

 
13. S. (49:17) We talked about the fact that it is important to see all the friends as bestowers.  What can I do if I do not see that the friends are bestowing but they are just ordinary friends like me? 

R. I do not understand. They participate in the process we are going through or not. 

 

S. They are friends in the ten. 

R. Are they trying to implement what we are learning in the lesson? This is what I am asking. I am asking as a woman, in a woman’s group. Am I with the friends? Am I with friends who are doing what we are learning? Are they doing it or not? If they are not doing it then my question is maybe they do not understand what is required of us, so let us read together what Rabash writes that we have to do. Let us write down before us on a piece of paper. That it seems to us from what is written in the writings of Rabash this, this, and that is what we have to do. Let us check ourselves every day. Are we doing it or not? How have we advanced, how have we not? There has to be this examination everyday otherwise we might be going in a different direction or maybe we are not making any progress. Progress will not come from just being in the lesson but when we participate, from participating in the lesson from doing what is written. So let us ask ourselves, did we do today what was written and what? Let us speak among ourselves about what we did and what we did not and what we should do. Maybe we cannot do it today but maybe tomorrow. There has to be criticism, there has to be an examination. 

 
14. S. (51:42) What is the difference between envy that we look at with faith above reason and the ordinary corporeal envy? 

R. Corporeal envy and spiritual envy. With spiritual envy I envy the friend. I do not want him to decline a degree and become more of a fool and less successful. On the contrary I want him to be even more successful and wiser and then I will be even more envious of him and that will be my fuel to rise as well; to cling to him and rise along with him. This is how we rise. No one ascends by himself but only through incorporation in the friends and this is why we need to come to states where each one helps the other in this way. I deliberately make others envious of me because by this I give them an opportunity to advance. In other words the envy that I awaken in them is not an egoistic envy. On the contrary it is a type of bestowal toward them. In truth I would make of myself this hidden righteous, this great Kabbalist who is hidden. But no, I want to show them that I am greater and greater in order to stimulate them, to provoke them, to make them envy me. Because envy, lust and honor bring a person out from the world into a higher world. 

 

15. S. (54:10) In order to wake up envy is it permitted to tell the friends that I am doing intensive internal work even if it is not true? 

R. Saying it is nothing, we have to show it. Words are not helping much only through practical examples. 

 
16. S. (54:39) We are afraid of using envy because we are afraid to cause harm, but we also know that it might block our progress if we do not use envy, so what is worthwhile to do and what is not worthwhile to do? 

R. You have to talk about it and scrutinize it and not hide ourselves from others. Show good examples to each other, give them good examples. This is also good both because it shows me as greater than others but the greater in something, and not that I think that I am great but also that I feel myself lower than all the others and I give them an example not in how I bestow to everybody that I do good and help everyone but how I submit myself to everybody and I feel myself as the lowest of all. 

17. S. (55:50) How to relate to a friend who visibly says that he appreciates only Rav but not the friends? 

R. It means that he also does not appreciate Rav because the teacher, Rav is the spirit that is in the ten. It is all a lie, she is bowing to a statue which she built for herself, like an Idol. 

 
18. S. (56:26) What does it mean that the righteous revokes it as we read in the excerpt, it makes it sound as if the person does some action himself? 

R. If the person achieves a degree of the righteous with his act of being righteous, he also revokes that decree of the Creator which was negative.  

  

19. S. (56:53) The excerpt speaks about the work on the left line, how can the person pray from the left? 

R. If he is attached to the group, if he compliments himself with the group in the manner of the left line and then he complements the group, such work each of us has to do as well. 

 
20. S. (57:22) How does the transition happen between the left and right, is it an intellectual effort? 

R. I do not know what he is speaking about. The personal work or group work? What is this exactly about the right and the left? Normally it is a state within that person, but we have to try to constantly be on the right and if we know how to do something on the left as well then, we have to come from the left to the middle line. 

  

21. S. (58:05) The left brings the recognition of evil of our nature and progresses us; the right is bestowal and when they connect these two lines then it is possible to progress in the middle line. How to achieve the middle line in the ten? 

R. I cannot express it in words at all I think that the by understanding being fully aware of the importance of the two lines, left and the right we come to a state there is a middle line build out of the two and then we understand the wholeness of the two of them, the Creator begins to shine in both and then we get the middle line. 

  

22. S. (59:08) What to do with the feeling of joy when they are on the right side is it ok to feel joy? 

R. It depends on what, what does it mean that the right line gives joy, the right line gives wholeness the feeling of joy because I am attached to the higher force and I am under its control through the ten, through the ten. This is what it is called that I am on the right. 

 
23. S. (59:45) How is it possible to determine if I am already on the right line and I can go on the left line for half an hour that you have mentioned? 

R. If I feel myself that I can be on the right line all the time then I can also criticize the right line from the left line in other words what more can I add to the right in what way can I pass criticism, pass my criticism to the right, and integrate myself in the left in the middle of line, I cannot explain it. When we get there, first we have to be in the right first of all in the right. 

  

24. S. (01:00:59) Is it possible to pray for the left and be grateful for the right simultaneously at the same time?

R. No, no, no they have confusions. I see the right and left confuses everyone, there is room for it but all in all it is still, it is still not clarified so dear women let us immerse ourselves in the right. Meaning in mutual bestowal without any boundaries. Let us just be in this first of all, let us feel what it means to be in mutual bestowal without any boundaries and then afterwards we will be able to talk about the vessels of lines.
 

Excerpt #30 twice (01:02:38 - 01:04:52)  

  

25. R. Then this is the goal, not to be in the day or the night but if he uses the day and the night to the extent that he can bring more contentment to the creator.

26. S. What does it mean that I should be an example for the friends, I need to pass the importance to them, but it is also I who need to annul before them and incorporate in their advancement? 

 

R. There are times this way and times that way but first of all what we learned; if you feel that you can somehow help the friends, support them then you have to do it. That is our way. To come to the barrier of bestowal so if you have a possibility to bestow then you have to bestow all the time until you completely realize yourself in there. Now according to time I am not sure how to divide it according to time but what it seems it is twenty-three and a half hours a day you have to be in bestowal and only half hour a day in reception to check if you are still in it. That is it, try to constantly support and support and support the group 100%. By this you will come to the state where you are incorporated in them, and you are incorporated in the Creator. Without choosing anything else you are constantly choosing how you can do it in a better way. We also have the sperm that enters the womb and how it tries to reach that place where it begins to develop, right? That drop of sperm how it permeates, how it enters the womb and how the sperm begins to develop and that is exactly us, we want to enter with all our might until we become incorporated in the right place we do not stop at any moment, we just push more and more and more, this is what we have to try to do. Okay? 

  

27. S. (01:08:44) What does it mean that a person who adheres or follows the outer ones? 

R. A person who follows external ones? Then his attention is to the external ones, and he does not belong to us. He might be physically in the group and in the lesson, but his thoughts and desires are there with the outside world, so he is there. 

 
28. S. (01:09:49) Is there room at all to bring my left to the ten or should it be only my inner work? 

R. The left and the right we will try to connect them in the ten later and we will advance on both legs, inwards together, all of us, like soldiers, how they march left right, left right. We will work this way together. 

 
29. S. (01:10:29) What does it mean contentment for the Creator? 

R. The Creator gets contentment from you wanting to bring contentment to people in general in the world, or at least in the ten. By this you please the Creator. 

 
30. S. (01:10:57) How can we restrict within us between the left and the right? 

 R. Don't think about that, just advance. Bestow in both, in all the states. 

 
31. S. (01:11:22) The more we work in the ten and work on the prayer we see that the prayer always begins with some requests for help, and it ends with gratitude. How do we work correctly, how do we pray correctly? 

R. The best is to talk about it with the friends. To scrutinize the common desire, the common intention, the common object for which you pray, what exactly you want. Scrutinize it among yourselves as much as possible and then pray.
 

32. S. (01:12:07) What is the difference in my attitude to the day and the night? What in the difference creates separation? How exactly does it create separation?  

R. I do not understand. 

 

S. It was said that the attitude to the left and the right should be equal. 

R. Yes. 

 

S. So let us say that the attitude for me or in the ten is not equal to the two of them. How does that create separation? 

R. Keep giving importance to the spiritual work in every single state until these states divide clearly for you day and night, and they will come closer between you in the day and in the night. Meaning what is important is why you work. And then it is not important for me if I work in the form of the day or in the form of the night as long as under both conditions where I do not determine day and night but the Creator. So I am always directed toward Him, aiming for Him. 

 
33. S. (01:13:23) Can I ask about relationships in the ten? Is it allowed that a veteran friend would dictate to the other what not to do in the ten without the whole ten deciding on it? 

R. Maybe, but usually it has to be through the whole ten. 

 

34. S. (01:13:51) You said that every day we need to check whether we are doing what is written. Should it be personally or in the ten, what is the right way to do it? 

R. I do not know. Think what is better for you, what is more suitable for you. 

 
35. S. (01:14:14) In the text he says that the person is rewarded with wholeness. It is not clear what he wants to say about the one who was rewarded with the wholeness. 

R. I do not understand your question. Why don't you write it down and send it to Gil? 

 
S. He says it is confusing because he has to work with no reward.  

R. Yes without a reward for our will to receive. 

 
S. That does it mean to get the reward that is? 

R. The force of bestowal, this is what I want. Working without reward can only be if you are crazy.  The desire we activate, and we activate great desires, so of course these desires have to get fuel.  The question is what type of fuel my desire receives and works with. It is like having an engine that works on fuel or there is an engine that works on electricity or on gas. What is the fuel? So we want to come to a state where our fuel will be spiritual. 

 
R. (01:16:42) We are done with this part; we are moving onto the next part. We have to go through the articles of Baal HaSulam so we will have the right background, and from every article we create some sort of summary. So let us go over, not too deeply but let us get to know what he wrote.
